you use the term stupid, dumb, ignorant a lot. I think you like repeating it. Insulting people really isn't going to change their opinion much. Logical reasoning might ( not always), but the old adage about flies and honey seems to reasonably apply here.
Well now you're being silly. If I said to you " I have this gun, and I could use it to shoot you in the head, but I'm not going to", I believe you'd be nervous. And rightfully so. Just the mention of the two in the same general vicinity is an implied threat.
How is a comment with multiple turds, mulitple accusations of someone being less than capable of thinking, and that tired old Canard of Bush=Evil even vaguely insightful?
Insightful should mean "hmm, good point", not "hmm, i agree with you completely, now let me have some of that flavor-ade"
I hate this damn argument.
Yes, you do need stores in your area.
Have you ever tried buying sunglasses? ones that fit?
I have this fear of the future, and in it, everyone wears poorly fitting clothing and uncomfortable shoes, buys horrible tasting food, and generally never leaves their home.
Plus, your small community friendly businesses will soon be driven out by the raging monstrous online corporations that undercut their prices. Everyone likes to think they support these small shops, but as someone who used to work at a small shop where everyone went for advice on what to purchase, then bought somewhere else for a cheaper price, this is delusional fantasy.
Yes, this is entirely fair.
Whatever you think about Best Buy being asshats, using a store for a "Try" , then buying somewhere else is really just wrong.
I'd be willing to cut you some slack if you went to another local shop, but internet sales: What are you gonna do when there ARE no more bricks and mortar stores.
I used to work, years ago, at a ski shop that went out of business precisely because of this: people would come in for sales recommendations, then walk off somewhere cheaper to purchase.
Your argument assumes that the number of people immigrating is irrelevant and has no impact on the US.
That being the case, why not simply do away with numbers and let anyone who wants to immigrate?
Even if you truly believe that, what about the effect on the countries that are losing people. Some of them might be the ones to improve their home country considerably.
In other words, I don't think it's a one off issue, that can be easily dismissed.
There are many aspects of the Constitution that need updating. I mean, this bears repeating however obnoxious, but some of the Founding Fathers were slave owners. They were not necessarily the most in tune with human rights.
Perhaps we want to clarify gun rights. Perhaps we should put in a very clear right to privacy (such as the right to contraception, to interracial marriage, and to abortion, perhaps) instead of having a non-elected Supreme Court cobble that together.
I don't know if it's a good idea. I would reject it because we'll end up banning free speech given the current political climate. But it's not stupid enough to dismiss out of hand. If we had another shot at drafting a Constitution, we might be able to do a better job than the Founding Fathers did.
I agree , we might.
Just like if I was to throw a peanut up into the air as hard as i could, it might fall back to earth and choke a penguin.
Pretty much the same odds.

Complaining about apple is the Hipster thing to do?
What is this, bizarro world?
type something. see what it does.
Why are you so interested in getting this guy killed? You've posted twice on the subject. I find it odd.
citation please.

Thank you for admitting, unlike many, that you're not sure of the answer. I wish more of us here would do that...
Yes, however you are a fool.
Wait, you're being SARCASTIC! OK, then you are an ass.
Thank you.
See, we can all make stupid comments too!
However, you'll notice that the "ethical" stands required more words. Words are HARD!
I'm fairly right wing, and also find his diatribe assholy. Is that even a word? Regardless, I don't think idiocy is purely political.

Is there an internet Meme similar to Goodwin's law, but involves invoking Reagan in a political debate? If there isn't, there should be.

And, at my job, there is a five star signal, where AT&T and Verizon fade out in various areas. It's just luck of the draw.
Your argument is weakened by an OSX signature. It's like arguing for Catholicism simply being a better religion, and having a "The Pope ROX!!!!" sig.

"apprenticeship" sounds weirdly Jedi. The question is, is it Luke-obi apprenticeship, or Palpatine-Vader?
If you're not rich, or working, why are you out in Montecito on a workday afternoon?
Did you really just reply twice to your own post?

You were so close to hilariously funny-really, i giggled out loud-and then the parens ruined it. But nice try sir!
Orient watch sells a version: http://orientwatchusa.com/mens/executive-watches/cdd00001w more like a wristwatch on a chain, however.
100% safe? God, even sitting here reading your comment I'm not 100% safe.
